Default Oh n0es, my new SOHC setup is up and running!

Before:



After:



I have a lot of cleaning up to do on the install (wiring, piping, vac. lines, etc.), but it runs pretty nicely for now...







Precision SC50 .48 a/r turbo, custom m4d tYtE ramhorn manifold (ceramic coated by Boost Factory), 3" downpipe & cat (KTeller 3" exhaust coming soon), Tial 35mm WG @ 7 psi, Crome-chipped ecu w/USB datalogging cable, DRAG III FMIC, ACT HDSS clutch kit, DSM 450cc injectors, etc. etc...

It runs great off the P2P map I'm running (JeffsBoostBin from Xenocron's directory). No CEL's, good oil pressure, no leaks (well, minor exhaust leak), and it pulls pretty well at only 5-6 psi!

3" exhaust, 10-11 psi, and dyno tuning are up next

Congrats! It's a great feeling to finally start it up and know it runs.

They sat too tall in the IM for some reason, I found a thread that explains why. There was some seal we needed to put in, that we didn't have. Oh well, these will be fine for now, I can sell off the RC's and find a saturated set of them

well love the turbo choice, not too crazy about the manifold but for sure a nice DIY turbo kit. Keep honda-tech posted on your dyno results bro.

Thanks bro

FYI, I'm running a steel D16Y7 oil pan on my Y8, and it seals up great!

Might want to clean up your vac lines just a bit, run the under the pipes and under the intake manifold then come up it will look alot cleaner. I bet u love the power of the SC50 to the 15g, but now u hate the lag

Yeah, I have a lot of work to do with the vacuum lines. I'm not sure if I want to run the GE vacuum manifold I have, as I'm running the WG to the compressor, and the BOV to the brake booster. The boost gauge is running off the IM cruise control line (which I don't use).

I LOVE the SC50, because it pulls where my 15G never did

However, I do hate getting used to the lag. It's like sppooollllllnoise PULLLLLLLLLLLL WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!

I need to get the 3" KTeller on there soon, and get it dyno tuned at more than 5-6 psi

making progress fnan!

As for the lag on that turbo... i never had a problem since i had the same turbo/mani. I would rather wait a bit for boost than to have it run out of breath 1000rpm before redline *cough* 15G *cough*

Well you have to understand that I'm still running a 3" downpipe -&gt; 3" cat -&gt; 2.25" DC Sports cat-back exhaust, so that has a lot to do with spool-up. And I have a couple exhaust leaks to fix (my fault).

But I really do like the fact that I can actually rev it out and make power to redline and beyond
